We recently switched the CI to not disable ptest, but this breaks builds that use the GCC binaries built by Arm (external-arm-toolchain). This is because the external-arm-toolchain recipe can't build packages for the target, and the standard oe-core gcc recipes assume that they're being built with themselves and make assumptions, specifically that libunwind was enabled and headers can be copied directly from the sysroot. This is a bigger problem that should be solved somehow, but for now we can just remove ptest in the external-gccarm CI jobs which removes gcc from the builds (it comes in via elfutils-ptest RDEPENDS).

Introduction
This repository contains the Arm layers for OpenEmbedded.
-
meta-arm
This layer contains general recipes for the Arm architecture, such as firmware, FVPs, and Arm-specific integration.
-
meta-arm-bsp
This layer contains machines for Arm reference platforms, for example FVP Base, N1SDP, and Juno.
-
meta-arm-toolchain
This layer contains recipes for Arm's binary toolchains (GCC and Clang for -A and -M), and a recipe to build Arm's GCC.
Other Directories
-
ci
This directory contains gitlab continuous integration configuration files (KAS yaml files) as well as scripts needed for this
-
kas
This directory contains KAS yaml files to describe builds for systems not used in CI
-
scripts
This directory contains scripts used in running the CI tests
Mailing List
To interact with the meta-arm developer community, please email the meta-arm mailing list at meta-arm@lists.yoctoproject.org Currently, it is configured to only allow emails to members from those subscribed. To subscribe to the meta-arm mailing list, please go to https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/meta-arm
Contributing
Currently, we only accept patches from the meta-arm mailing list. For general information on how to submit a patch, please read https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
E-mail meta-arm@lists.yoctoproject.org with patches created using this process. You can configure git-send-email to automatically use this address for the meta-arm repository with the following git command:
$ git config --local --add sendemail.to meta-arm@lists.yoctoproject.org
Commits and patches added should follow the OpenEmbedded patch guidelines:
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines
The component being changed in the shortlog should be prefixed with the layer name (without the meta- prefix), for example:
arm-bsp/trusted-firmware-a: decrease frobbing level
arm-toolchain/gcc: enable foobar v2
Releases and Release Schedule
